Viruses under the super microscope: How influenza viruses communicate with cells
Influenza viruses are among the most likely triggers of future pandemics. A research team from the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) and the Medical Center - University of Freiburg has developed a method that can be used to study the interaction of viruses with host cells in unprecedented detail. With the help of their new development, they have also analyzed how novel influenza viruses use alternative receptors to enter target cells. The results were recently published in two papers in the journal Nature Communications.
